UPDATE 1/29/2010: If you’ve been checking back here for more info on the IM4A project, here’s a hint: I’m doing a live webinar on Ustream on Feb 2nd. I’ll be covering a lot of the information that we discussed in the first IM4A project, but at a very quick pace. There’s a video on the home page that talks about the webinar. If you are registered for the newsletter, you might also have heard word. This webinar is going to be awesome. Don’t miss out!

To get updates on what the current artists are doing, subscribe to our RSS feed or our email newsletter!  If you are interested in individual consultation, please visit the Internet Marketing for Artists page.

I’d like to announce the official Abundant Artist Internet Marketing for Artists project.

Are you an artist who is wondering how to do better Internet Marketing?  Would you like to learn how to leverage the power of Google, Facebook, Twitter, and other Internet resources to power your fan base and sales?

I’m going to take 10 artists and collaborate with them to show them how to build a better Web site, connect directly with fans, and sell more art.  If you are an artist who:

• Has something to sell
• Is not afraid of the Internet
• Is willing to put 10 – 15 hours per week on your marketing

Then this project will be of interest to you.

What we’ll be doing

You’re an artist, and you’re committed to your art, but you haven’t been able to get your internet marketing started, or you’ve started but it’s not working.  We’re going to work together to get your internet marketing off the ground.  We’ll start from wherever you are, even if you don’t have a website yet.  We will be doing things like (but not limited to):

• Build and/or evaluate your website.
• Grow your mailing list.
• Learn about blogging.
• Learn the best places to sell your art online, or the best places to build buzz for performers.
• Learn the basics of Search Engine Optimization and Paid placement as it relates to art.
• Learn to create an online (and offline) community around your art that will allow you to grow your business.

What’s the cost?

We’ll talk about that on the Ustream webinar. Other artists who have participated can tell you that it’s well worth the cost.

Why am I doing this?

I’m doing this to build community around The Abundant Artist.  I get the satisfaction of helping other artists out and showing the community at large what can be done.

How do I apply?

Check out the Ustream webinar. I’ll cover all the details, and I’ll be picking one or two artists to tear down and build up during the call.

If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment below or email me.

Please share this post with any artists you think will be interested in this opportunity.
